Vol. 04 Ch. 07 – Full Dive

(Corazon's POV)

When Doffy wanted to meet with Arthur, I already got information about them from Fleet Admiral Sengoku. I didn't think there is Tenryuubito who would still want to leave Mary Geoise and decided to become a pirate. But I was more surprised when I read the information on him being able to defend against Whitebeard and win against The Hawk Eyes. I wanted to warn Doffy but he would be suspicious about the origin of the information I got, so I remained silent. My main priority is to help Law by finding Ope-Ope Fruit to cure Amber Lead Syndrome.

When we met Arthur, he began to mock Doffy. But I found him looking at me and Law with a slight smile, I ignored him because maybe he smiled underestimating us who brought Law that was still small. But he also brought a kid, even all the crew members were women, damn, I was very jealous ... ah, no, I was very confused.

After saying a very 'nice' greeting, Doffy gave a signal to prepare to attack and I stepped forward with the other Elite Officers. Seeing Arthur who was still relaxed made me a little off guard and suddenly my body turned into a strange shape toy. I wondered, is this was the ability of the paramecia devil fruit Hobby-Hobby Fruit that my men found in South Blue? But that should require direct touch with the target to work.

Doffy: "Corazon, didn't you say that you got information about Hobby-Hobby Fruit in South Blue?" Doffy called out to me suddenly.

Corazon: "Of course ... uh ... my voice."

I reflexively answered but I who should have been a noiseless human being by eating the paramecia devil fruit Calm-Calm Fruit could not speak without deactivating my barrier. It seems like the Art-Art Fruit he got has abilities like Hobby- Hobby Fruit, but the information I got was that this fruit was able to kill his opponent with just a touch that turned his opponent into a stone statue and died slowly. I have to report this to Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

Not long after I saw Doffy and Arthur fighting in the air, I could see that Doffy was pressed by Arthur making him decide to retreat by exchanging all the treasures on board and the devil fruit that we found on our way here. But Arthur also asked me to be hostage to keep Doffy from attacking them with the promise that they would release me the next day. But my surprise didn't stop here, Arthur's words when I was on his ship give me more surprises.

Arthur: "Take it easy, you can leave after we finish talking, Marine Commander, Donquixote Rosinante. I can help you get Ope-Ope Fruit to save the boy with the white hat. Mingo also doubt about your identity but let it go because you are his brother, and for information about Vergo, the first Corazon of the Elite Officers where he is disguised as Marine officer now on Mingo order."

I just listened to Arthur's words and pretended not to understand. But I also got my own information about the Ope-Ope Fruit's existence so I didn't need his help, but instead I felt threatened by the help he wanted to give. He gave me one night to think about all this, but I still wouldn't change my decision. I must not make a mistake in this matter and I need to solve it myself, even to stop my brother, Doffy. I did not understand what Arthur wanted to do but seeing him take out something like a submarine with big bubbles made me not care much about him. And finally, he left me on the boat with Boa Hancock and Baby-5.

Hancock: "Stop walking back and forth, the sound of you as a robot makes me unable to rest."

Corazon: "Sorry, do you think Arthur will fulfill his promise to release me tomorrow? Isn't he afraid I will get information from him and reveal it? "

Baby-5: "Everything has been planned by young master Arthur and he will keep his promise." Baby-5 poured cold drinks in her glass and Hancock's.

Hancock: "Why does Arthur want you? Don't tell me that you are a girl in disguise?" Remembering Corazon wearing makeup made Hancock's imagination frivolous.

Corazon: "Huh?"

Meanwhile, Arthur who is now driving Amphitrite continues to dive deeper. Sugar kept screaming when she saw each type of fish and other sea animals they passed. Robin and Monet can also see everything clearly because of the bubble-like Amphitrite model. They continued to dive and the light disappeared to make Arthur activate the Lamp Dial so that they could see their surroundings. Even though the girls were getting scared because the sea was getting darker but with Arthur's words they were all calmer. At a depth of more than 1,500 meters, they finally found their target with a magical compass in Robin's hands.

Robin: "We can't copy it using the usual method, even though with Vision Dial we can get the picture but some parts will remain unread because the moss is covering it."

Arthur: "Don't worry, wait a minute."

Arthur released the Amphitrite's steering wheel and moved to another console to move the mechanical hand which when it touched the poneglyph immediately release a big bubble that enveloped the poneglyph so there was no seawater around it. The bubble is the same as that used by the Tenryuubito, although it cannot be used to dive deeper it is enough to give Arthur the time needed. Arthur immediately put on his diving suit and walked out, he waved his hand to Sugar who saw Arthur with glowing eyes. Arthur touched the poneglyph and put it in his storage ring. After Arthur returned to the Amphitrite, he immediately moved it to the surface.

Baby-5: "The sun will set soon, but young master Arthur and the others have not returned."

Hancock: "Don't worry, if they get into trouble then they will contact us with Den-Den Mushi. Nothing can give trouble to Arthur in this sea. "

Corazon: "I didn't know there was a treasure in this area." Along with Corazon's words, Amphitrite came to the surface.

Arthur: "We are home." Arthur gave his greetings after opening the door to Amphitrite.

Sugar: "Baby-5 Nessan, there is a lot of fish and the submarine is shining and has hands and then there is a big rock, then, then, the young pour out bubbles into the big rock and the young master walk in the seabed after the young master touches the big rock, it suddenly disappears. Young master Arthur is very cool. " Sugar tells what he knows with great enthusiasm.

Baby-5: "Of course, young master Arthur is very cool. Now you go inside and take a shower, I have prepared the hot water. " Sugar ran in with her hand imitating Amphitrite's mechanical hand movements.

Hancock: "So you want to keep it."

Robin: "Lots of moss covering the surface of the poneglyph so we can't read it while it's still down there." Robin's words surprised Corazon.

Corazon: "Poneglyph? Are you not afraid of the World Government after they have destroyed your island? "

Robin: "It's precisely because they destroyed Ohara that makes me even more curious about what the World Government is hiding." Robin answered calmly.
